I gather that is in American dollars?
MacBook Pro M3 Max, Scarlett 4i4 4th Gen, Ableton Move, LaunchPad Pro MK3, Behringer Edge, TecWav noise synth, Crank Sturgeon Plug Ugly contact mic, and oodles of effects pedals.

if you are using the computer mostly in the studio get a desktop and get twice the performance. A laptop under $1000 will probably suck for audio.
